I put an updated parent handbook in every new family's box. Everybody else,
please take one from the pile by the mailboxes if you feel you need to be
updated or refresh. Also look for forms to fill out and return, and remember
your vaccination forms.
Tuition statements are in your boxes. Tuition is due on the 15th.
Here is a slight change to our dress code:
Sundresses are welcome for students up to and including 3rd grade. A grade ¾
combined class is treated as a grade 4 class.
Shorts must be long enough so that they are as low as the wearer's
fingertips when the person is standing up with arms straight.
Skirts and dresses will be at least as low as the student's knee when
standing upright.
Shoulder straps will be at least 1 inch wide.
Please help your students to adhere to our dress code. See parent handbook
for more details.
